Discover the top 5 best halal Laksa Siglap in Singapore
Cuisine: Malay
Laksa Siglap, a distinctive variant of the traditional Peranakan noodle soup, offers a unique taste of Singapore’s coastal heritage.
Unlike typical laksa, this version is free from tofu, fish cakes, and prawns, instead featuring simple, yet flavorful, accompaniments like cucumber, bean sprouts, laksa leaves, and a dollop of sambal. The dish reflects its coastal Siglap origins, with a light fish stock made from ikan parang (wolf herring) and ginger forming the base of the broth. The fish's flesh is pounded and added to the mix, along with kerisik, a quintessential Malay ingredient of toasted coconut paste, creating a richly spiced, aromatic broth that has become a beloved local favorite.
